We have been given that Jackson purchases a new car for $48,000. The car's value can be modeled by the following exponential function:
where y represents the car's value and t represents time in years. We are asked to find the decay rate as a percentage.
We know that an exponential decay function is in form
, where,
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Decay rate in decimal form,
x = time.
Upon comparing our given function
with standard decay function
, we can see that
.
Let us solve for r.



Let us convert 0.24 into percentage.

Therefore, the decay rate is 24%.
The answer would be the square root of 25 times 9 im pretty sure its been while and it would be 25*9=225 square root of 225 is 15
The Strawberry mango is more expensive by $0.01 more it being 1.10 every ounce and the tropical punch being least expensive it being $1.09
Very interesting question!
Let's try to get something that would work for just 5 for now.
Any of these numbers would leave a remainder of 1 when divided by just 5:
6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 36, 41, 46, 51, 56, 61, 66, 71, 76, 81, 86, ...
Notice that they all look like 5*(something) + 1. Basically, they are all multiples of 5 plus 1.
Let's see what would work for just 8:
9, 17, 25, 33, 41, 49, 57, 65, 73, 81, 89, ...
Are there any matches... AHA! It's 81. This is the lowest positive integer greater than 1 that follows the rule for both 5 and 8.
5.12% means
5.12/100 = 0.0512 (each year)
PreOwned Vehicle Cost = 31,100
For 5 years simple interest, the value would be:
31100 * 0.0512 * 5 = $7961.6
Total have to pay: 31,100 + 7961.6 = $39,061.6
